Thanks. Some of Kevin's other companies don't make much news, but Gilt is definitely worth mentioning.
The success definitely not going to my head. We wouldn't be anywhere without our readers. And we have a long way to go.
On the sensationalizing, I have to admit that I tend toward the tabloidy headlines myself. I've always thought a combo of the Post and Economist would be great, and I think sometimes we achieve that.
Appreciate the feedback, though. And grateful to have you as a reader.
I saw Volcker on Charlie Rose and he's as sharp as a tack. I also saw a speech he gave earlier this year on the financial shenanigans of the last two decades that was BRILLIANT!
In fact, he is the only one in Obama's vicinity who isn't bought and paid for by Wall Street. Robert Rubin's mafia (Summers, Geithner, ...) has shut him out because he never drank their Koolaid. He wants Glass Steagall back, he wants financial alchemy out of the system and he wants a stable economy. That makes him senile to some of the posters here? What a crew of twats.

We have walked out on Henry along time ago,just come back for the laughs.......http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4af03d0c0000000000835f71PrickTue, 03 Nov 2009 09:24:11 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4af03d0c0000000000835f71

Volcker states at the beginning he had to make a speech. CNBC acted unprofessionally by trying to make the walk out appear to be something it was not.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aeff48500000000008eefbdordinary moderateTue, 03 Nov 2009 04:14:45 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aeff48500000000008eefbd
Of course you could have back "bubbles" Greenspan who is also way past it. And how Paul O'Neill, John Snow(job) or any of the rest of the Brownies he put in economic advisory roles.
He did manage to sneak in a couple of GS chairman, though ones the employees didn't have much use for.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aefcae8000000000032d344LOLTue, 03 Nov 2009 01:17:11 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aefcae8000000000032d344
I agree.
Story like this really make me question whether I want to come back to this site. I mean, how many other articles I have been reading here were as misleading as this one?http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef88d900000000005a49fcreaderMon, 02 Nov 2009 20:35:20 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef88d900000000005a49fc
Volcker said at the beginning of the interview that he was late for his speech and could only answer a few questions, this is definitely not "walking out" what a stupid headline, if your goal is to lose credibility good job.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef7feb0000000000f020c2nameMon, 02 Nov 2009 19:57:15 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef7feb0000000000f020c2
Volcker is the most sound mind in earshot of the oval office. It's too bad that his advice is not followed more closely. It's obvious that he was baited by quesitons here that would allow him to throw the administration under the bus, but he chose not to do so.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef7e9a00000000002328b8nameMon, 02 Nov 2009 19:51:37 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef7e9a00000000002328b8

Despite it turning out to be a non event it was an important video.
For those of us that like to read into what is said, what he said and did not say speaks volumes.
Sadly, Volcker has no place at the table and we are too spoilt for the medicine that he would want to deal.
Check out the David Dreman article, surprise, he is still bullish but the whole thesis is based on a pipe dream

Henry,
How do you know what Maria was thinking? Can you now read minds too? I think the success and growing traffic of TBI is going to your head. Has not the sad episode with Merrill Lynch given you any humility at all?
I love your site, but please, try to keep these young bucks from linkbaiting and sensationalizing to get traffic. They will be your undoing. That, and your own blatant pimping of Kevin Ryan's other business ventures. Let's see how many more times you can mention GILT GROUPE in a given week...http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef71d4000000000050a1c8GaryDMon, 02 Nov 2009 18:57:08 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef71d4000000000050a1c8
He sat down because he had a few minutes before making a speech. She clearly understood that. He didn't just walk out on the interview. Sheeeesh.
God she's hot.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef70950000000000401689BenMon, 02 Nov 2009 18:51:48 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef70950000000000401689

That's my headline, so don't blame Vince.
He did walk out on her. And she did think it was a bit odd. (I've been watching CNBC for 15 years now, and I can't remember anyone actually getting up and walking off the set while the cameras were rolling).
He didn't STORM out, if that's what you're thinking.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef6de50000000000d49c6eFrancine McKennaMon, 02 Nov 2009 18:40:21 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef6de50000000000d49c6e
Volcker definitely disses her "lavender" suit. Who dresses these people? With all the money in the world... Someone must have roped him into an interview when he was supposed to be on an Ovaltine break. I have a lot of respect for the man and his prior accomplishments but he, unfortunately, has passed his crisis advisor "sell-by" date.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef6c9600000000001ded96PurpleTeethMon, 02 Nov 2009 18:34:46 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef6c9600000000001ded96
Vince is new (2 weeks now), young, and doesn't have a finance background. He's loading up on volume pasting any crap he can find, as apparently spamming the site is what drives rewards here now.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef6bb30000000000fa9995Ministry of PropagandaMon, 02 Nov 2009 18:30:59 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef6bb30000000000fa9995

I saw it live as well and it only left me wishing I could see the speech he was about to give.
Volcker is/was? a man apart from the other crooks previously mentioned that advise Obama. Clearly, Volcker is just there to provide legitimacy to the advisory team. The question is...does he still have the fight left in him to speak his mind to the press about what'sreally going on behind the scenes. Hopefully he did it in this speech.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef627400000000005d6c0dGordonMon, 02 Nov 2009 17:51:32 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef627400000000005d6c0d

Since when is Maria Bartiromo a JOURNALIST???? She's a doll to all the schmos on Wall Street, but she is no different than any of the other bimbos on Entertainment Tonight!
Paul Volcker at least has the balls to show he won't put up with the same old B.S. that CNBC, or Fox, or any other pseudo business news channel wants to put out there.
Mr Volcker is at the age that he doesn't have to put up with B.S. nonsense anymore, and I applaud him for it. At least he recognized that purple is not proper business attire either, unless maybe your name is Towanda or L-ea.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef5da60000000000f6deb5ehMon, 02 Nov 2009 17:31:02 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef5da60000000000f6deb5
Vince, you are lame.
Are you such a link troll that you need to sensationalize what looked like a perfectly normal end to an interview?
Does Henry pay you per visitor click? You FAIL.
Go back to stuffing envelopes, you might make more money.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef5d6e0000000000037fbbloroMon, 02 Nov 2009 17:30:06 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef5d6e0000000000037fbb

Jeez. The guy was supposed to be somewhere else and had to get going. She understood. You make it sound like he walked out because he didn't like the questions. It did not appear to be "in the middle of the interview." "The time has come for me to give a speech."http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef5c990000000000c77897alphadirectedMon, 02 Nov 2009 17:26:33 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/4aef5c990000000000c77897
I saw it live. We should be scared. HE is a/the top adviser to the Obama Administration? Yea yea i know he is and where he's been, it just seems he's about 120 frigging years old, crotchety and a little out of touch.
Maybe they set him in the corner, give him a 7-UP and tell him to hold a potted plant...
